Section 7. The net effective interest rate on the Bonds of this issue is 8.77983%.

 

Section 8. That so long as any of the Bonds herein authorized shall be outstanding, either as to principal or interest, or both, the entire gross income and revenues of the municipal golf course and appurtenant facilities shall be set aside in a separate special fund hereby created and known as the "Grand Junction Golf Course Revenue Bonds, Series March 1, 1975, Income Fund", herein sometimes designated as the "Income Fund".

 

Section 9. That so long as any of the Bonds herein authorized shall be outstanding, either as to principal or interest, or both, the following payments shall be made from the Income Fund:

 

A. Firstly, as a first charge thereon, there shall be deposited from time to time into a separate fund hereby created and known as the "Grand Junction Golf Course Revenue Bonds, Series March 1, 1975, Operation and Maintenance Fund", herein sometimes referred to as the "Operation and Maintenance Fund" sufficient monies to pay operation and maintenance expenses as they become due and payable, and thereupon they shall be promptly paid.

 

B. Secondly, and subject to the aforesaid provisions, from any monies remaining in the Income Fund after payment of operation and maintenance expenses as required by Section 9A above, (i.e., from the net income and revenue of the municipal golf course and appurtenant facilities, herein sometimes referred to as the "net income and revenue"), there shall be deposited in the Bond Fund the following:

 

1. On or before fifteen (15) days prior to the next maturing installment of interest on the Bonds hereby authorized and then outstanding, an amount sufficient to pay such interest, and thereupon said interest shall be promptly paid when due;

No payment need be made into the Reserve Fund so long as monies therein shall equal not less than the Minimum Reserve. The monies in the Reserve Fund shall be accumulated and maintained as a continuing reserve to be used, except as hereinafter provided in Paragraphs D and E of this Section 9, only to prevent deficiencies in the payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds hereby authorized resulting from the failure to deposit into the Bond Fund sufficient funds to pay said principal and interest as the same accrue. Monies in the Reserve Fund may be invested as permitted by the Laws of the State of Colorado and the Charter of the City of Grand Junction, provided such investments shall be made consistent with the covenant hereinafter provided concerning arbitrage bonds.

 

D. No payments need be made into the Bond Fund, the Reserve Fund, or either, if the amount in the Bond Fund and the amount in the Reserve Fund total a sum at least equal to the entire amount of the outstanding Bonds herein authorized, both as to principal and interest to their respective maturities, and both accrued and not accrued, in which case monies in said two Funds in an amount at least equal to such principal and interest requirements shall be used solely to pay such as the same accrue, and any monies in excess thereof in said two Funds and any other monies derived from the operation of the golf course and appurtenant facilities may be used in any lawful manner determined by the City Council.

 

E. If, at any time, and from time to time, the City shall, for any reason, fail to pay into the Bond Fund the full amounts required to be paid by Section 9B above from the net income and revenue of the municipal golf course and appurtenant facilities, then an amount shall be paid into said Bond Fund at such times from the Reserve Fund equal to the difference between that paid from said net income and revenue and the full amount required to be paid by said Section 9B. The monies so used shall be replaced in the Reserve Fund from the first revenues thereafter received from the operation of the municipal golf course and appurtenant facilities not required to be otherwise applied by Sections 9A and 9B above. If, in any annual period ending February 1 in any year beginning in 1979, the City shall, for any reason, fail to pay into the Reserve Fund the full amount required to be paid by said Section 9C from the net income and revenue of the golf course and appurtenant facilities, the difference between the amount paid and the amount required to be paid by said Section 9C shall in a like manner be paid therein from the first revenues thereafter received from the operation of the municipal golf course and appurtenant facilities not required to be otherwise applied by Sections 9A and 9B above. The monies in the Bond Fund and the Reserve Fund shall be used solely and only for the purpose of paying the principal of and the interest on the Bonds issued hereunder; provided, however, that any monies at any time in excess of the Minimum Reserve in the Reserve Fund may be withdrawn therefrom and used as herein provided for the redemption of Bonds hereby authorized as they become due or on any redemption date.

G. After the payments hereinabove required to be made by Paragraphs A to F, both inclusive, of this Section 9 of this Ordinance, the remaining income and revenue derived from the operation of the golf course and appurtenant facilities, if any, may be applied to any other lawful purpose or purposes authorized by the Constitution and statutes of the State of Colorado, and the Charter and Ordinances of the City of Grand Junction, as the City Council may direct.

Section 11. The City hereby irrevocably covenants and agrees with each and every holder of the City of Grand Junction Golf Course Revenue Bonds, Series March 1, 1975, dated March 1, 1975, so long as any of said Bonds remain outstanding:

B. That it will establish, maintain and enforce such rates continuously until all the Bonds authorized herein and the interest thereon, have been fully paid and discharged.

 

C. That it will keep and perform each of the covenants and agreements set forth herein.

Section 12. Nothing contained in this Ordinance shall construed in such manner as to prevent the issuance by the City of additional bonds payable from the net income and revenue derived from the operation of the subject municipal golf course and appurtenant facilities and constituting a lien upon said revenues equal to or on a parity with the lien of the Bonds authorized herein, provided that the City is current in the payments and accumulations required by this Ordinance for the Bonds authorized herein; and in addition, provided that the annual net income and revenue derived from the operation of the said golf course and appurtenant facilities for the fiscal year immediately preceding the date of issuance of such additional parity lien bonds, together with the projected net income and revenue to be derived from the first year of operation of any additional facilities to be constructed or acquired with the proceeds of such parity lien bonds, if such additional facilities are to be revenue-producing, are equal to at least 1.3 times the projected total amount necessary to pay the combined maximum annual principal and interest requirements of the Bonds authorized herein as well as of all outstanding revenue bonds having a lien upon the net income and revenue derived from the operation of said golf course and appurtenant facilities equal to or on a parity with the lien of the bonds authorized herein, for the fiscal year immediately following the date of issuance of such additional parity lien bonds. A certification of sufficient revenues for such purpose shall be required prior to the issuance of such additional parity lien bonds, from a consulting engineer or an independent accountant, provided the aforesaid projected total amount for the immediately following fiscal year may be so certified by said engineer or accountant based on the reasonable estimates thereof by the City Treasurer.

 

Nothing herein shall prevent the City from issuing refunding bonds having a lien on revenues of the said golf course and appurtenant facilities equal to or on a parity with the lien of the Bonds authorized herein, refunding all or any part of the issued unpaid Bonds authorized herein which are outstanding as of the date of said parity refunding bonds, and in the event that such parity refunding bonds are issued the revenue requirements set forth above as conditions precedent to the issuance of additional bonds shall not apply.

 

Nothing herein shall prevent the City from issuing bonds having a lien on the income and revenue of the subject municipal golf course, subordinate to the lien of the Bonds authorized herein.

 

Section 13. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with the issuance and payment of the Bonds authorized herein shall be paid exclusively from the proceeds of said Bonds or from the income and revenue of the subject municipal golf course and appurtenant facilities, and in no event shall any of such costs or expenses, or the principal of or interest on said Bonds be paid out of or charged to the general funds or tax levies of the City.

 

Section 14. Any monies in any of the Funds established herein which are not needed for payment immediately for the specific purpose of the Fund may be invested or reinvested by the Finance Director and ex officio City Treasurer as authorized by law, provided any such temporary investment shall be made consistent with the covenant hereinafter provided concerning arbitrage bonds. The obligations so purchased as an investment of monies in any such Fund shall be deemed at all times to be a part of said Fund and except as hereinafter provided, the interest accruing thereon and any profit realized therefrom shall be credited to the Fund in question, and any loss resulting from such investment shall be charged to the applicable Fund. In case of interest from investments in the Reserve Fund, so long as the amount in the Reserve Fund equals not less that the Minimum Reserve, such interest shall be transferred to the Income Fund and distributed in the same manner as other monies in the Income Fund.

 

Section 15. It is hereby determined and recited that the period of usefulness of the golf course and appurtenant facilities to be acquired and provided with the proceeds of the Bonds is not less than fifteen years from the date of said Bonds. The City in its operation of the subject municipal golf course and appurtenant facilities will carry fire and extended coverage insurance, be protected by public liability insurance and other types of insurance in such amounts and to such extent as is normally carried by private corporations or clubs acquiring, constructing or operating such facilities, as the case may be.

In the event of property loss or damage, insurance proceeds shall be used first for the purpose of restoring or replacing the property lost or damaged, and any remainder shall be treated as net income, and shall be subject to distribution in the manner provided hereinabove for net income and revenue derived from the operation of the golf course and appurtenant facilities.

 

Section 16. The City hereby further irrevocably covenants and agrees with each and every holder of the City of Grand Junction Golf Course Revenue Bonds, Series March 1, 1975, issued under the provisions of this Ordinance, that so long as any of said Bonds remain outstanding:

C. It will not sell or alienate any of the property constituting any part or all of said municipal golf course and appurtenant facilities in any manner or to any extent that might reduce the security of the pledge of revenues therefrom for the payment of the City of Grand Junction Golf Course Revenue Bonds, Series March 1, 1975, authorized herein, but the City may sell any portion of such property which shall have been replaced by other similar property of at least equal value, or which shall cease to be necessary for the efficient operation of said municipal golf course and appurtenant facilities; provided, however, that in the event of any sale or sales, as aforesaid, where the aggregate consideration exceeds the sum of Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00), such consideration shall be treated as income of the municipal golf course and related facilities.

 

D.

Section 17. The City covenants with the holders of the Bonds that it will make no use of the proceeds of such Bonds at any time during the term thereof which, if such use had been reasonably expected on the date the Bonds are issued, would have caused such Bonds to be arbitrage bonds within the meaning of Section 103(d) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended, unless, under any valid provision of law hereafter enacted, the interest paid on the Bonds (a) shall be excludable from the gross income of a recipient thereof for federal income tax purposes without regard to whether or not such Bonds are arbitrage bonds, or (b) shall be exempt from all income taxation.

Section 20. The officers of the City are hereby authorized and directed to enter into such agreements and take all action necessary of appropriate to effectuate the provisions of this Ordinance and to comply with the requirements of law, including without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

 

a. The printing of the Bonds herein authorized; and

The execution of such certificates as may be reasonably required by the purchaser of the Bonds relating to the signing of the Bonds, the tenure and identity of the City officials, receipt of the Bond purchase price, and, if in accordance with the facts, the absence of litigation, pending or threatened, affecting the validity of the Bonds; and

 

c. The making of various statements, recitals, certifications and warranties provided in the form of Bond set forth in this Ordinance.

 

Section 21. All ordinances, acts, orders, resolutions, or parts thereof, taken by the City and in conflict with this Ordinance are hereby repealed to the extent of such inconsistence. Said repealer shall not be deemed to revive any ordinance, act, order, resolution, or part thereof, heretofore repealed.

 

Section 22. This Ordinance is, and shall constitute, a legislative measure of the City, and after the Bonds hereby authorized are issued, sold and are outstanding, this Ordinance shall constitute a contract between the City and the holders of said Bonds, and shall be and remain irrepealable until said Bonds and the interest accruing thereon shall have been fully paid, satisfied and discharged.

 

Section 23. The proper officers of the City of Grand Junction, Colorado, are hereby authorized and directed to pay or cause to be paid the interest on the Bonds herein authorized as the same shall accrue, and the principal of said Bonds at maturity, without further warrant or order.

 

Section 24. If any paragraph, clause or provision of this Ordinance is judicially adjusted or unenforceable, such judgment shall not affect, impair or invalidate the remaining paragraphs, clauses or provisions hereof, the intention being that the various paragraphs, clauses or provisions hereof are severable.
